I've grown a couple of times but never like this. I'm not going to pull the trigger until I'm satisfied I've got everything hammered out. If anyone has any ideas to contribute or see any flaws please discuss here. I haven't chosen a strain or nutrient line yet. I'd like to shoot for around 1.5lbs per plant but I know that will take practice. I've heard people with similar setups going far beyond that, even past the 2s.

My bud room is roughly half, 5600 watts with five plants. Running high yield clones maxed out at 14 ounces per plant on average.
The last year and a half have been seed plants only, and the average is under a half pound. Every seed is different and dialing in is almost impossible. Clones take about four harvests before the light, temperature, and nutrient adjustments kick the yields to the max for the genetics.

I used 7 gallon containers, almost doubling that to 13 gallons will definitely increase the average yield, but picking the best plant out of ten and cloning it exclusively will give good results compared to individual seeds for each plant.

Really good information, thank-you. Do you run CO2?

After I first build the room I'm going to run a large amount of plants then pick out the best females to be my mothers then run the whole operation off clones from those mother plants. I'm hoping yield will increase run after run but I really think with enough preparation, picking the right strain, etc. I can have a solid first run and dial the OP in eventually. I wouldn't agree on it being impossible to dial in.

What do you guys think about LED? I know HID is the tried and true, but I wonder if technology has gotten to the point where LED is worth using for a grow of this scale. I've read 650 watt LED = 1000 watt HID (depending on a million different factors for the specific LED compared of-course). Anyone have experience in this area?
